    B2601 chassis grease points?

    My gently used B2601 did not come with an owner's manual. Is there a YouTube video or something similar that shows all the grease points I should hit? The Kubota factory YouTube video does not really show much. TIA, Sid

    Flail for a B2601?

    I have a nice B2601 with a 60" MMM. I need a brush mower so I don't destroy it. I mow in an orchard and the area between my pipe fence and the road. I encounter heavy weeds, sticks and limbs/roots, beer bottles, etc. that I cannot see from the seat of the tractor. A Kubota 1548 'bush hog' is...

    Shredder - Rotary Mower - Bush Hog died!

    Our 5' light duty shredder died. What is the better or best medium duty shredder that will work on my B2601? The L4600 is destined to be upgraded so, 6' is too small and 7' is too big for this tractor which has me coming full circle to probably a 4' medium duty shredder that is compatible with...

    What is a good sprayer for an L4600 or B2601?

    I'm looking for a good sprayer that has a reasonable price and reasonable coverage rate for pastures. I am out of my element once you get past a backpack sprayer. I'm seeing a lot of ~40-gallon tanks and ~2.2GPM pumps for ~$350 with 10' booms and 4 nozzles. I have no idea of ground speed for...

    Fuel water separation on B-series or L-series?

    I have a B2601 and L4600. After my friends Kubota bent connecting rods and blew some injectors, I tend to think there is the potential for water to be part of the problem. This has me thinking about my tractors. I see both have fuel bowls beneath the filter. Will that catch water? On the...

    B2601 grill guard? Which one?

    I need to get a grill guard for my B2601. In the pasture and orchard, the hood is taking some abuse from big weeds and small shrubs or tree branches. Is the factory Kubota one a good option? Or, how about some aftermarket options? Or, maybe I should purchase some brackets from Kubota and...

    Bent connecting rods?

    My friend has an older Kubota UTV (think it's an RTV900) with a 23hp motor with about 500 hours total time. My friend was in low gear at a high RPM pulling a single section drag behind it on his gravel driveway. I have used the same drag with his UTV and find it pulls pretty easy so, not a...

    B2601 hydraulic/transmission oil check and fill?

    I have a new to me B2601 that was gently used by its previous owner. I bought it from a dealer that told me it was serviced and ready to go. I did a cursory oil check before loading it up and taking it home. It was raining when I got home so, I caught a 30 minute break and mowed a little by...

    Looking for a mow tractor under DPF/Tier IV emissions for farm use

    I own an L4600 but, I find it to be too big and tall for a lot of my mowing needs. I have used a BX23xx with a 54" deck and find it to be too small. The BX has too little ground clearance and the tires are too small a diameter. On slopes, I kept sliding around on the seat. The tires were...

    How much weight is too much for an L4600 3-point?

    I'm looking at a 3-point Flail that is ~1550lbs and it is listed at 4' in length. As I recall the spec on my tractor is 2400lbs at 24" from the 3-point arms. Is this too much weight or enough weight to damage my tractor? I know it will be light on the front end without the loader and possibly...

    L4600 geared transmission hydraulic fluid question

    Reading various posts, a sight glass is mentioned near the left side of the PTO or by the clutch pedal. I don't see a sight glass or dipstick to check the hydraulic oil level. Am I looking in the right places for the sight glass to check the oil level? Secondly, what sort of hydraulic oil...

    Best flail mower for an L4600?

    I'm considering a Caroni flail mower for my rough yard and pasture so I don't eject rocks and limb chunks into windows, cars, sheds, etc. While I don't need golf course green cut quality, it needs to be a bit better than a brush hog. Is the 73" from Agri-Supply my best option at ~$2500? Used...

    Hooks and Clevis for a LA764 loader / LA2256 bucket?

    Bolt on hooks I have an L4600F with the LA764 loader and LA2256 (66" SSQA) bucket. I need some chain hooks to lift stuff off trailers and possibly a clevis hook for general utility. Has anyone used these hooks? Did you attach them just outside the SSQA frame and dump cylinders or out on the...

    L-4600F oil change, WIX filters and Rotella T6?

    Sorry if this is an often asked question but, my search came up empty. I did my first oil change with a factory Kubota oil filter (~$13) and Rotella 15-40W oil. While at a the local auto parts store, I cross matched it to a WIX oil filter that was <$6. Should I worry about running a WIX...

    Kubota tillers & mowers, just rebranded Caroni?

    I don't read Italian but it looks like Kubota is using Caroni mowers and tillers. Is this correct? I know Scima makes tillers for many including John Deere and wonder if a Caroni finish mower would save some money while maintaining Kubota quality. Best Regards, Sid

    Top-n-Tilt for L4600F, factory Kubota or ??

    I'm considering adding a Top-n-Tilt to my L4600F tractor. I have read some negative reviews on the Kubota solution (leaky cylinders or valves?) so, I have been looking at other solutions. In the end, it looks like all the Top-n-Tilt options are roughly the same price. What I can't really do...

    BX2230 rear hydraulic options?

    What are the reasonable cost options for rear hydraulics on a BX2230? Nothing fancy is needed. We just need to runs a log splitter with it. TIA, Sid from my cellphone

    BX2230 mower/mid PTO won't engage

    I was using the BX2230 mower when I disengaged it to pick up some trash someone threw out while driving by my place. When I tried to start the mower again, nothing .... No noise, nothing apparently bent or broken, PTO shaft and U-joints look good so for. Is there an 'idiot' switch I need to...

    74" Tiller with L4600?

    from my cellphone... I'm looking at the Angsung YJR 74 tiller which is their heavier duty gear driven tiller. It weighs 919lbs. Does anyone have experience with this tiller or a similar one on a 2WD geared L4600? I'm looking to break ground with it and till up hog damage. TIA, Sid

    Dirt Dog or Everything Attachments disc?

    Hopefully, someone has seen both, or possibly uses one or the other. How does the Dirt Dog MB-300 compare to the Everything Attachments XTreme Duty disc? They appear to be similar products but I lack pricing for both similarly equipped with their respective weights. They appear to be much...
